Wonder Struck

Brian Selznick

By: Andrew Cordes


This book has two stories going on at the same time Ben's story, told in words and Rose's story told in pictures. Ben, deaf in one ear goes on a exiting mission to find his missing father. Rose deaf in both ears goes on a mission to meat a mysterious actress.


"The wolves had been chasing him again and his heart was pounding." "Ben lay back down on the old cot squeezed between the dresser and the window."


I thought the author did a really good job setting the scene on the first sentence because there was a lot of detail going into how he was scared, and you could tell that he was worried from the first few words. I really liked the second sentence because you felt like you were right there with him in his small room.
